Crystal Lodge Literary Society.

The Lodge was called to order by C. T., W. c.
Passmore in the chair.
The favorable weather resulted in a good at
tendance of members. The hour for commencing
which was o'clock has been changed on account
of the short evenn gs to o'clock, which does not
seem to have much effect the members for
promptness. The lodge at last meeting elect
| ed Miss Lizzie Sheppard and Mr.. NJ. E. Kirk, for
delegates to the State Temperance Alliance which
meets in Baltimore on the Goth inst. 1t being the
evening for nomination of officers for the next
term, three members were nominated for each Of
flee. This rule caused quite breezy discussion
between the G. T., and one of the heavy weights
to the discontinue of the latter.
At this stage of proceedings a candidate for adj
mission to the lodge announced, which was
followed by his initiation and the congratulations
of the members.
Next in order was the literary exercises, which
were as follows:
Essayist. Geo. NJ. Kellholtz, subject "Hope"
Miss Emma Wiser, also read very interesting
essay "Self interests Select reader, Miss NJ.
Alice Mcclure, entitled zone Night With Gin"
also Miss Mabel Reynolds on appearances"
Referred questions answered satisfactorily. Our
editor Mr.. Everett Jones stated that he was sorry
to disappoint his subscribers, bat his "devil' had
pied the FORMS he was excused. The debate Res.
THAT Cleveland acted unwsely in vetong the de-
pendant pension bill,' owing to the late hour
was postponed. Some of the ladies had complain.
ed at previous meeting of the enduring qualit-
les of the orators and wished to limit them to a
FIVE minute round, stating if they had the debat-
ing to do they would make short work of it, and
no doubt they would, if it was about bon
net, rery short
full attendance is desired at our next meeting
as it is the night for election of officers.
After the closing exercises lodge adjourned to
meet in one week.

A Bank at North East.

A large meeting of the most active
business men of North East met at
the Office of J. w. Falls, last week,
for the purpose of considering the
question of establishing a Bank at
that place. The Star reports the
proceedings.
The meeting was organized by
calling Mr.. J. J. Mcdaniel to the
chair, and making Geo. o. Carey
secretary. Mr.. Mcdaniel stated the
object of the meeting and made
known the plans for organizing
Land and Loan Company 10 do a
banking business nearly matured by
his father, the late Delaplaine Nc
Daniel. at the time of his death. A
charter had been secured by him,
ground had been purchased for the
building, and front of galvanized
iron had been made for the structure,
Mr.. Mcdaniel further stated that he
considered loan and trust company,
that did banking business in all re.
spects excepting issuing money, was
more needed in North Eastanan d
more to be preferred than Nation
al Bank, one to be nodded some
what after the Fidelity Trust Co.,
and other similar institutions in
Philadelphia. Others present ex-
pressed similar views in regard to
the project. A capital of 100000,
divided iuto 1900 shares, at $25 each
was thought by some TO be sufficient,
although, if it should appear that
more than this amount of stock can
be secured, the capital will be raised.
A rising vote at the time showed that
every one present would become
stockholders. Messrs. w. I. Lam
din, G. W. Shippers and Chas. J. By
ard were appointed committee to
secure subscriptions.
